Grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) is a drought-tolerant, warm-season cereal grain grown primarily for grain production, but it also serves as an important wildlife food source. Its seeds are highly nutritious and attractive to various wildlife species such as deer, turkeys, and small mammals. Grain sorghum is often planted in wildlife food plots because it provides high-energy grain and cover during winter months.

Benefits for Wildlife Habitat

Nutritious grain that attracts deer, wild turkeys, pheasants, and small mammals.
Drought-tolerant – ideal for areas with unpredictable rainfall or arid conditions.
✔ Provides winter forage when the seeds ripen and remain standing.
Cover crop – helps with erosion control and provides habitat for small game.
✔ Can be left standing as a food source throughout the winter.

Planting Guidelines

  • Planting Times:

    • Late Spring to Early Summer (May–June): Grain sorghum is best planted when soil temperatures reach 60–70°F for optimal germination.
    • Avoid planting in cold, wet soils as it may result in poor germination.
  • Seeding Depth:

    • ½ to 1 inch deep for consistent germination and establishment.
  • Seeding Rates:

    • Drilled: 8–10 lbs per acre for a more uniform stand and reduced seed waste.
    • Broadcast: 10–12 lbs per acre, followed by light harrowing or cultipacking to ensure seed-to-soil contact.
  • Days to Maturity:

    • 90–120 days from planting to full maturity, with the grain becoming available in 100–120 days.
  • Drought Tolerance:

    • High – Grain sorghum is known for its excellent drought resistance due to its deep root system and ability to thrive in hot, dry conditions.
  • Saturated Soil Tolerance:

    • Low to Moderate – Sorghum prefers well-drained soils and may be affected by excessive moisture or waterlogging, especially during germination and early growth stages.
  • Shade Tolerance:

    • Low – Grain sorghum requires full sun for optimal growth and grain production, and performs poorly in shaded conditions.

Fertilization Guidelines for Grain Sorghum

  • Soil pH: Sorghum prefers slightly acidic to neutral soils with a pH range of 5.5–7.0.
  • Nitrogen (N): Sorghum has moderate nitrogen requirements. Apply 40–60 lbs of nitrogen per acre pre-plant, and additional 30–40 lbs per acre at planting or in a side-dress application after the plant has started growing.
  • Phosphorus (P): Apply 30–50 lbs P₂O₅ per acre before planting if soil tests show phosphorus deficiency.
  • Potassium (K): Apply 50–80 lbs K₂O per acre to support healthy growth and grain production.

Fertilization Timing:

  • Apply phosphorus and potassium before planting.
  • Apply nitrogen at planting or in split applications during the growing season, with the second application typically occurring when the plant reaches 4–6 inches tall.

Herbicide Use for Grain Sorghum

  • Weed Management:

    • Weed control is vital in the early stages of sorghum growth to prevent competition for nutrients and water. Sorghum is not particularly aggressive against weeds, especially in the seedling stage.
  • Herbicide Options:

    • Pre-emergence: Herbicides such as Atrazine or Prowl H2O (Pendimethalin) can be used for controlling broadleaf weeds and grasses before the sorghum emerges.
    • Post-emergence: Herbicides like 2,4-D or Clethodim can be used to manage broadleaf weeds and grass weeds once the sorghum is established.

Key Considerations:

  • Always follow herbicide labels and use appropriate rates to prevent crop injury.
  • Consider pre-plant incorporation of herbicides to reduce weed competition and ensure sorghum establishment.

These are fantastic!!!
Size: 80 ea
All I can say is, "WOW." I've been fighting terrible dry mouth since going on cpap three months ago (my mask covers nose and mouth). My machine has a humidifier but that wasn't helping at all, even when turned up so high it was raining in my mask! The first nite I tried these lozenges it was like a gift from the angels! I used two, putting one on each side as per the instructions. It was a little weird sticking them to my molars at first; they didn't seem to want to stick but finally took hold. I also had to kind of adjust them so they didn't get knocked loose when I closed my jaws. But once they were in place they worked like a charm. I don't find the taste at all objectionable. It's kind of a very, very mild mint. I will *definitely* order these again. If you fight dry mouth, these are worth trying even though they're on the expensive side. They aren't as expensive as dental work if they end up protecting your teeth from cpap-induced cavities! UPDATE - my oral hygienist told me that CPAP users often begin to develop cavities and other dental problems from using the device. She said that the use of xilitol, which is in these lozenges, night help stave off such problems. Here I am, after years of CPAP use, and I have had no dental problems other than a lost filling! These lozenges are a lifesaver!

It works well but uncomfortable
Size: 80 ea
I take blood pressure pills that dry my mouth out. The inside of my lips feel burned from being so try overnight. It's uncomfortable. I discovered these tablets and thought I'd give them a shot. I am struggling with them. I don't have a large mouth and these have to sit inbetween your gums and your lip or cheek. They are bigger than I would like. Plus they kind of hurt my gums. You're supposed to put them in place, wait ten seconds so they stick and then there is no further instruction other than they work for several hours. Do we just leave them in place all night because the uncomfortability makes it so I can't sleep easy. I also wear a nightguard on my top teeth to keep me from grinding. I love Xylitol, I bought some to use in my coffee in the day time so that part is a great thing. I just can't get past how uncomfortable it is to have them fixated in your mouth all night. One last thing... you're supposed to put two in. I did that the first night and it was like... NOPE. I let them sit for 5 minutes like it says and then I just dissolved the rest in my mouth because no way could I leave them in place and sleep. The next night I just used one on my bottom gums. It was still uncomfortable. If they could make them smaller, it would be way easier. Other than that, the Xylitol does work and my mouth isn't nearly as try when I wake up in the morning.

Odd but surprisingly great
Size: 80 ea
These things are pretty weird. I had no idea what I was ordering when I ordered them. When they came, I didn't read the documentation and tried one like a normal breath mint. No no no. I set them aside for a few months -- until I read an article online in which dentists were interviewed and in which the dentists recommended products helpful for dental health. These things were mentioned in that list, so I dug them out and read the documentation. Oddly enough, each "melt" has an adhesive-like side that will keep it in place against your jaw (tucked out-of-the-way, between gum/teeth and cheek). And, it's gone -- there but forgotten. Lasts for hours (no kidding), slowly dissolving, keeping your mouth moist (like for speaking) and keeping your breath slightly "minty fresh" (I'm laughing at that expression.). And, apparently, there is a flouride-like dental benefit, but I haven't researched that. Anyway, I highly recommend these quite-strange "melts" (not mints but slightly minty).

Clear and powerful analysis.
Format: Paperback
The three books in Bowlby's trilogy on Attachment, Separation and Loss need to be read a whole. Using the studies and case histories of children being separated from their mothers and important others, in a wide range of circumstances from separations of only a few minutes, through separations of several weeks on up to prolonged and permanent separation due to divorce and death, Bowlby outlines a new way of understanding neurosis, psychosis and optimal, healthy functioning. Using the lens of a Darwinian analysis, and the case histories written up by psychoanalysts spanning decades, he compares and contrasts his new theory with that of previous psychological thought, especially the psychoanalytic tradition. I found his analysis penetrating and illuminating. It sets the stage and formulates the hypotheses for further research. Much of that research has now taken place and has borne out Bowlby's theories. Not all of it, of course. Because Bowlby's attachment theory became and continues to be such a foundational analysis for so much that has followed in its wake, from evolutionary psychology to child development to psychotherapy, it is a must read for anyone interested in these and related fields.
